Featuring the AlterG – Anti-Gravity Treadmill

San Diego Running Institute is one of the few clinics in the area to utilize the AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill, the world’s first and only treadmill using NASA based anti-gravity technology, designed help patients in their short-term rehabilitation programs.

Patients at SDRI can now rehab better, train smarter, and exercise safer with the AlterG. With the AlterG, patients can run and walk without bearing their entire weight, reducing the impact on the body to optimize rehabilitation and physical therapy outcomes. Its Differential Air Pressure (DAP) technology applies a lifting force to the body that reduces weight on the lower extremities and allows precise unweighting – up to 80% of a person’s body weight, so people can find exactly where the pain stops and natural movement feels good again.
